This is not applicable when running on Windows.  I was specifically 
referring, for instance, to entering at command prompt

current_dir> python -m test -j10

AFAIK, test.__main__ does not look at environmental variables.

ps. I have been wondering why 'j' rather than, say 'c' or 'p' was used 
for 'run in parallel on multiple cores'.  Your comment suggests that 'j' 
follows precedent.
